From Wall Street Go-Getter to Working for God

Lizzie with Attitude

This week on the big show, Joe and his good friend James trade some of their usual witty banter, and talk about the way to true happiness.  Then Joe’s friend Elizabeth Lange joins them to talk about her journey from track star to Wall Street to working for God.  It’s another installment of in-your-face Catholicism, served up with a side of love.

Do Catholics Hate Science and Reason?

Joe discusses the interplay of faith and reason with his friend Tania Pena, a doctoral student in Biology and fervent Catholic who teaches evolution at UT Austin.  Joe Morse and Gina Sanchez also make an appearance to stir up trouble.  More fun than a barrel of monkeys!

Harvesting Organs, Stem Cells, Cloning, and In-Vitro Fertilization

Hippocrates_rubensThis week, we tackle some serious and controversial ethical topics. First Joe laughs it up with his good friend and co-host Joe Morse. Then Gina Sanchez, a nurse specializing in treating cancer patients near end of life, returns to talk about Bioethics. We talk about when it is ethical to harvest organs, determining time of death, stem cell research, cloning, and in-vitro fertilization. It’s a very thought-provoking, and discussion-provoking installment of Joe’s People!

 

Cross-fit, Catholic sexuality, and Conversion

Suzanne and Lino

Tonight on the big show, Joe laughs it up with his good friend and co-host James Kuhr.  Then they interview one of Joe’s convert People, Suzanne Miller.  Suzanne talks about growing up Evangelical, becoming agnostic, and her road to Catholicism.  We also talk Catholic sexuality, and her views on Theology of the Body, health and fitness.  It’s another must-listen webisode of podcathing! (Lino Rulli does not appear in this episode or endorse my podcast in any way).
